Get on the Kevin Kolb bandwagon!

[MDS]

he had such a tough life

i mean really

booed my a bunch of drunken idiots on draft day that listen to angelo

wow. what a rough one. poor guy.

i hope he gets over it, but i understand it might be tough to put that behind him.

[Butchers Bill]

SD didn't say he brought it up, he said McNabb still holds a grudge  which is painfully obvious.  SD was also right about leadership and having thin skin.  Here is just one example of another teams fans booig their own draft pick:

Dolphin fans booing Ginn

[Rome]

The fact that getting booed for 30 seconds is the worst thing ever to happen to McNabb speaks volumes about what a ridiculously priveleged life he's led.

[MDS]

how about the same fans who booed mcnabb (not only angelos losers, but the times he got booed off the field like the home game in 03 against new england and all the wip calls and message board posts over the years).....get this

BOOED PAT BURRELL AND CHARLIE MANUEL.

farg they were more personal and vile to manuel than mcnabb. but charlie didnt give a shtein. then he won a world series and starting winning. now they love him and he rakes it in.

burrell was getting killed. he never complained. then in 08 he leads the parade down broad street and even before that was adamant he didnt want to leave.

some people can put stuff like that behind them, some cant. mike schmidt couldnt. it ate him up. but he was just 1 player on a team, mcnabb is the qb. but funny the first playoffs schmidt actually showed up the phils won.

were still waiting on 5 to show up for the entire playoffs. and also not be a total bitch. but i guess thats dc's problem now.

Nice to see PG and Munson in complete agreement!

[Munson]

The dude was asked about, and he talked about it.


Normally the complaint is the constant stream of BS we get from athletes, now you're on a guy because he was honest with his answers.



Got it.

[Munson]

Also, I'm not gonna bitch and moan about an athlete answering questions that he's asked. If he was going around bringing it up himself, I'd care. But anyone who really pays any attention to any interview given by an athlete, especially one as "sound as PC as possible while I give this answer" as McNabb was, needs to find something better to do with their time.

[SD]

So because someone's honest we should disregard his constant bitching and moaning every time it's brought up? The first time he was asked about it he should have laughed it off and said he was just looking forward to playing some football. The whole thing would have been forgotten, but he was constantly asked about it because reporters know how to push buttons and they knew that was an easy soundbite/quote. Why drop it when he continues to feed their fire.

[Sgt PSN]

i'm a mcnabb fan but just the fact that even 2 or 3 years in he felt the need to keep answering questions about it was annoying.  and entertaining the same questions after 10 years was just ridiculous.  he could have easily just said after season 2 or 3 that he's already answered questions about being booed on draft day and it's time to move on.  but he couldn't answer it that way because (a) that would require taking a stand and (b) he never actually moved on from that.  because if he did he would have stopped talking about it every time someone brought it up. 

[Geowhizzer]

He's not the only one that hasn't moved on.

[Munson]

He's not the only one that hasn't moved on.

THis.


The dude was asked questions. He answered them.
And because he's Donovan McNabb and gives the most boring answers ever, there shouldn't be one person who pays attention to any answers he gives.

[MDS]

so its the medias fault?

they never wanted to move on from that line of questioning so therefore 5 could never move on from it?

he is a friggin taterskin now and you losers STILL make excuses for him. 5 did a lot of things right here and a lot of things wrong. this is one of the bad things, he never embraced the fans, the city, the people and never let go or forgot what happened on draft day.

thats what you expect out of a corny mommas boy who was coddled every second of his life and never had anything bad happen to him. then boom, one day in he gets booed. funny how he couldnt take it.

[mussa]

yeaup same old shtein happening around here...see you in a few days

[Diomedes]

word

[Munson]

And there's people that care about that type of shtein and people that don't.


When I think of Donovan McNabb in Philadelphia, the answers that he gave in press conferences/interviews and the dance moves he pulled on the sidelines rank somewhere around last and next to last on the what comes to mind list.
